NAGA Group Reports 7%
Revenue Growth in Q1 2025

The
Hamburg-based fintech saw group revenues climb to €16.4 million in Q1, up from
€15.3 million in the same period last year. The growth was primarily driven by
higher commission income, new client onboarding, and increased trading activity
amid volatile global markets.

NAGA’s
quarterly EBITDA stood at €1 million, down from €2 million in Q1 2024, with
margin falling temporarily to 6% from 13% in the prior-year period. The company
attributed the decline to a strategic increase in marketing expenditure, which
rose by €1.6 million compared to Q1 2024.

Group AG – Q1 2025 Non-Financial Key Performance Indicators

However,
new registered users decreased to 73,902 from 88,892 in Q1 2024, a decline of
16.8% that the company said was anticipated due to a strategic shift from
direct performance campaigns to broader brand-building initiatives.

Daily
trading activity per client increased 10.5% to 2.31 trades, while copy trades
rose 13.4% to 945,047. Total trading volume fell 26.9% to €47.3 billion, down
from €64.7 billion in Q1 2024.

This does
not fully align with the company’s statement just a week ago during the update
of its SuperApp platform. At the time, Patrascu noted that actions taken in Q1
had contributed to
an increase in new account openings and platform activity
. However, it is
possible that the positive shift occurred only after the first three months of
2025.

2023 revenue levels through “organic growth, efficient marketing spent, and
operational focus.” Management expects a substantial improvement in EBITDA
margin to reach the mid double-digit percentage range, supported by continued
synergy realization across the group.
